    Factory door speaker upgrade

    Hello, I am looking to upgrade my factory door speakers in my 2016 Hyundai Veloster that has the Dimension Audio sound system in it. It appears the front and back panel door speakers are 6.5" and in the front, I have two 1" tweeters. I'm not looking to do a big upgrade but just something to...

    2016 Hyundai Veloster sub & amp install

    Hello guys, I am looking into putting my 2 12" RF P3's and Taramps MD1800 amp in my 2016 Hyundai Veloster I just bought or maybe even just 1 10". I did some research and most videos I watched, people are putting in converters or whatever because theirs has the Dimension sound system already in...

    Appraisal

    I'll give this another thought before making a decision. I've just been feeling overwhelmed recently so I think I'm going to reprocess everything first. $319 to own the equipment in the end isn't bad especially if I'm already 2 payments in.

    I know. I shouldn't have done it if I couldn't pay for it from the beginning. But at the time, it was costly for what I got done and couldn't pass up 90 days same as cash back. Unfortunately, shit happens in life but definitely will be learning from this mistake. I owe $319 on the equipment as...

    Appraisal

    Hello, I never thought I'd be here typing this thread, but unfortunately I'm doing so now. I am struggling financially and one of the biggest thing's that is hurting me is my sound system. During the time that I upgraded my subs, I was in a good spot financially and ended up going 90 day same...

    Nice! Let me know who I need to get in contact with to get one. Do you have pics of it in daylight?

    I don't have one. Was it supposed to come with the amp or do I get it second hand? Not sure.

    No bass with new Taramps MD.1800

    I know that. I just got fucked over with my P2's twice so I don't want it to happen again. I don't even crank my music or abuse them because of what happened in the past. But people are telling me the Taramps combined with my P3's will knock.

    It was indeed turned up and not all the way down. I just turned it all the way down. Done. Anything to prevent these from blowing.

    No bass with new Taramps MD.1800

    Sooo.. just an update. One subwoofer was actually blown so I went ahead and decided to take the good one out and upgrade to dual 2 Ohm P3's. It happened to be the left woofer blowing which would now make this the second time so I said f*ck it. I opted into the 3 year warranty as well so this...

    I agree 100% and I spoke with Rockford Fosgate and unfortunately, they're not backing the issue either. Looks like I'm shit out of luck.

    No bass with new Taramps MD.1800

    What ***** is it probably sounds like to you guys I've been going to some rinky dink hole in the wall shop but they aren't. They're called The Specialists here in Arizona and they're really high end specializing in everything aside from just car audio. But that still doesn't justify the way the...

    No bass with new Taramps MD.1800

    The thing is, I set the gain myself and it was fine for the 3 days I was bumpin' before I took it in. I took it in, and not even within 5 hours after, they're what I assume, toast. I'm going to reach out to Rockford Fosgate themselves and see if there's anything they can do.

    No bass with new Taramps MD.1800

    My stupid ass went to their other shop to get my deck tuned for my last amp and deck I had, within 24 hours.. the RCA's went bad. Then I went to them 3 days after hooking up my new Taramps amp & head unit, for a tune, within 5 hours.. the subs lose bass and I just hear crackling coming from...

    No bass with new Taramps MD.1800

    Just wanted to give you all an update on this. I got the replacement amp and plugged it up, still no bass. I did additional troubleshooting again (swapped RCA's, remote turn on wire, speaker wire, different subs); still nothing. I then hooked up my Y-Split RCA to AUX cable from the amp to my...

    I'm not sure. I spoke to a guy named Gabriel and gave me the phone number to a Daymian who is a member of the US team.

    I appreciate your support, guys. I will be getting in contact with one of the Taramps US Team Members to troubleshoot over the phone with me tomorrow. I'll keep you guys posted.

    No bass with new Taramps MD.1800

    I'm not sure either. All the guy said was that which is why there's no bass. My question is though since the amp is only supposed to support 8ga wire, will my 4ga work? I use wire ferrules for good connection and they fit fine but I don't know if it'll cause any problems. At the end of the day...

    I showed them the video and multiple reviews but they still said it was bullshit. Who knows. At the end of the day, I'm just wanting a replacement or refund. Whichever they can do.

    No bass with new Taramps MD.1800

    I don't think I'm going to keep the amp though. I didn't know it only allows 8 gauge wiring and mine is 4 gauge, plus the shop trash talked the shit out of them saying that the amp can't output 1800W at 2 ohms with 8 gauge wire. I'm hesitant now.

    No bass with new Taramps MD.1800

    I just took it to my local car audio shop to run tests on my wiring, subs, and amp. They said the amp is pushing 12v power through the speaker wire to the subs which isn't good and surprised it didn't fry everything. They said the subs are good along with my wiring. I will be contacting Taramps...

    No bass with new Taramps MD.1800

    I just hooked up a male aux to two male RC y splitters I had here at my house from my phone directly to the amp; nothing. I will be checking the sub wiring tomorrow after I get off work, double check the remote turn on connection one last time, and double check everything is in series parallel...

    No bass with new Taramps MD.1800

    Hello, I just bought a Taramps MD.1800 2 ohm amp brand new from the manufacturer for my two 12" Rockford Fosgate P2 dual ohm subs. I hooked it up with my new KnuKonceptz Klarity 2 channel RCA's and re-did the ground due to previous amp issues and I'm not getting any sound from my subs at all...

    Recommend me a budget-range amp!

    Just an update.. I bought the Taramps MD1800 2 ohm amp, pulled my KnuKonceptz Basik RCA's, pulled my KnuKonceptz CCA remote turn on wire and re-ran KnuKonceptz Klarity OFC RCA's along with OFC remote turn on wire. Now I'm just waiting for the amp to arrive so I can re-ground my ground wire and...

    Recommend me a budget-range amp!

    I believe I'm going to go with this one based on the reviews I've seen. They have the 1 ohm and 2 ohm listed at the same price. Should I get the 1 ohm in the event that I upgrade my subs down the road or stick with the 2 ohm?

    Recommend me a budget-range amp!

    Hey all, I am looking for a new amp as I got burned on the Hifonics Brutus one I bought secondhand and my Alpine one went out before that. I have 2 x 12" Rockford Fosgate P2 dual 2-ohm subwoofers and I listen to rap. I am looking for one for everyday personal use so nothing fancy but nothing...

    Issue with subs and Hifonics amp

    I took it there today and they said there's nothing to do without charging me to go through and figure it out.. I tried checking the connection of the remote turn on wire but it still does it.

    Issue with subs and Hifonics amp

    Hello, I just swapped out my Alpine amp for a Hifonics Brutus BRX116.1D amp that's pushing both of my Rockford Fosgate P2 subs. I also hooked up the bass knob for it then went to my local car audio place to get it tuned with my deck. All was well until I start playing my music after a few hours...

    Blown fuse or blown subs?

    @ThxOne Thank you for all of that information. I'm going to bookmark this thread for when I buy a new amp. On the flip side, I took my car in and got it looked at. They used the meter to test the subs and definitely confirmed one of them was completely toast. The installer literally blew air...

    Blown fuse or blown subs?

    @ThxOne You've been nothing but good help my man. I am hoping that either The Specialists (the car audio place) offers at least a one year manufacturer warranty and will cover the sub(s) as I've had them for less than a year or at least Rockford Fosgate themselves. I've never had this issue...

    Blown fuse or blown subs?

    I'm not 100% what they are wired down to as I had my car audio shop install them when I purchased them. As far as the voice coils on each sub, they're dual 2 ohms. Attached is a screenshot of what the knobs are set at on the amp. I didn't do any of the knobs, the car audio specialists did them...
